!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ( do the exclamation points get my point across????)
Haha, it does. We appreciate the enthusiasm

.
The MC is a cootie-patutie and I can't wait to play as her. But if I had to chose on of
da boyz is prob Shiloh because
I KNOW he will let me touch the booty and that he
will like it.
Aw, great. I love to hear people like the MC X3.
Very intuitive

. Shiloh is definitely in favor of that, which is rare for these guys.
I already am tbh because I am a sucker for dating sims and the amount of features you offer makes me cry from joy and I just really like everything you have offered so far.
I love sims too and it's hard to know when to stop when it comes adding gameplay elements. All those features have made finishing a demo quite a task, but hopefully it'll be worth it X'D.
How much will it $$$? Name your price and I shall buy it //bows
It's looking like it'll be 15$ for the basic version (all the gameplay features and the option to date Everett, Nate, Shiloh, and Adrian) and another 10$ for the rest of the guys (Bae, Jeremy, Pran, and Kam). Or 25$ in total :].
Anyhow, I see that you put a lot of work into this and I hope it pays off. Looking forward to future updates! keep up the good work! <3
Thank you very much ^^. We're trying to get a more substantially update ready as soon as possible!

Heya. Time for another update :].
For starters the script finally reached 200k! There's only about 25-35k left for the entire thing.
We also had a full explanation of the game's dating system with accompanying screenshots. We think the way dating works is pretty fun.
Dating Part 1
Dating Part 2
The casual and special occasion outfits for the main guys are being knocked out now with 20 out of 60 complete. That's the last big art-related job that needs to be done, after that there will only be a few misc. things. We put out some screenshots showing off one of Jeremy's finished casual outfits 'cause we're excited about it.
Jeremy's 'joke'
There have also been a bunch of other screenshots posted just for fun. The theme recently has been showing off the side characters since the main jerks have been in the spotlight for so long.
Kam's likes part 1

How to win over Adrian

On a scale of thrilled to really thrilled, how do feel about this project?
Pretty Darn Thrilled, it looks like a great game that'd be fun to play!
If we twisted your arm behind your back and just demanded you choose between all these astounding characters, who would you pick as your favorite(s) so far?
Bae Pyoun.
Is there anything specific you'd like to see in the game's updates?
Not really, seems like you've really got this set in stone!
Any questions, comments, expectations, whatever
What made you decide to make this kinda game? Typically DS are all about ~True Love~

Cool! I always like hearing which guy stands out to someone.

Well, I really like the type of gameplay that goes into DS and I don't like writing slice of life romance. At first I did consider having it be more of a traditional style DS, but I decided that there was more to dating than what is generally seen and I didn't have to write something with a certain tone in order to use a certain type of gameplay. I did worry that no one would be interested in this style of DS them.
Thanks ALIENAgency :>.

Hehe, thank you ^^. The goal is to release the demo to everyone next month. But it could possibly come out this month if the head programmer doesn't get too busy and nothing else major is found.
DeeVisser wrote:I spent the past hour reading over the documentation and I'm hyped!! My favorite so far is Kam and I wouldn't mind paying extra to unlock the possibility to romance him.
Wow, thanks

. I'm rather fond of Kam myself so that's great to hear!
The game will have a basic version (14.99$) that comes with Everett, Nate, and Shiloh as main romance options plus one of the side boyfriends. And then there will be the full version (24.99$) which will have all six main guys and both side guys as romance options (if you got the basic version you'll be able to buy a 9.99$ attachment to upgrade it to the full version if you want). I haven't decided for sure if the basic version will include Kam or Adrian yet, though I'm leaning towards Kam being the one included in the basic version for some gameplay reasons c:.
DeeVisser wrote:My question would be if the game will be made available on Steam?
We will certainly try :3. After a more polished finalized demo has been released we're going to start a Greenlight campaign.

We haven't updated this thread in a long time, but we've still been hard at work on the project. Some important highlights are;
-The script is fully written and about 75% edited. It is currently
260,000 words long
-Almost all the visuals are done, including the twelve different outfits each main guy has
-The demo has been updated to include mini-games, an accessory system, the options to change her cellphone background, new student mode (it makes the first two months easier), the ability to change your odds of who you run into during the game play segments, and more
If you've played the demo, especially the updated one, it'd mean a lot to us if you'd let us know what you thought. Thanks ^3^~

One I just realized you are working on two other projects besides this one that I am following because they seem awesome. Two I can't get past December 22. Like December 21 ends and it goes to the next day at lunch time and it freezes. It has happened three times already. I have tried waiting. I have stopped other programs to make sure it wasn't slowing down the game and it doesn't make a different to game. It doesn't freeze my laptop either just the game becomes non responsive. I will wait a while and see if it unfreezes and if not I might just restart the game from the beginning (which is okay I already know I'm not getting much accomplished.) I just hope that I will be able to get past December 22.

@Kikaharu
Haha, wow, I'm glad you like our projects C:
As for that issue, I honestly don't know what's going on :0. I can't think of anything that would make that day specifically have issues and I haven't had/heard of others having freezing issues. I'll look into it though!
Either way, for now restarting may be the way to go, I'm sorry about that >>. One other solution could be using Swifty Taffy. If you go to the arcade you can use tickets to buy an item that skips all the Reputation related gameplay for one week. Equipping that on the weekend before the 22nd will mean that lunch screen that keeps freezing will be skipped right over. I have no idea if it'll really work or if a different screen will end up freezing, but it might be worth a try.
Thanks for playing the demo :>. I hope, besides that unfortunate issue, you've had a good time with it.
